bet?
Kara certainly wasn't going to play the choice bet with Lynn.
In her opinion, Linn was fundamentally different from her almost omnipotent brother.
That is: Linn is a person who truly has the ability to not be scornful of external things and take everything into his own hands.
Maybe what Linn said just now has some truth to it. Whether it's Kal-El, Batman, or Linn, they are all strong men in the true sense. Once you confirm what you want to accomplish, you will pursue it from start to finish without being hindered by anything.
But, after all, there is a difference.
The difference is that Lynn will not be coerced, Lynn will not lose, and Lynn will not be defeated.
Therefore, when Kara heard that Lynn wanted to make a bet with her, even though Kara didn't even know what the bet was and what it was about, she decisively chose to refuse.
"From this point of view, you are really the same kind of people. From the moment you made this bet, you have already won, right?"
"Hahaha, smart."
It's not easy to hear a serious word of praise from Lin En. Kara had no idea how lucky she was.
…
Following Linn flying from high altitude to the edge of the city, Kara asked curiously: "What exactly do you want to take me to see?"
This time, Lin En did not try to be mysterious and answered directly: "Look for a man named Rudolf. He was once on your blacklist, but later because of his good performance and willingness to cooperate, he was kept under observation by you. Instead of being arrested directly.”
Rudolf?
Kara was a little confused: "Do you know this Rudolph?"
"How could I possibly know him? I just randomly picked him out of your list."
Linn had been observing from left to right in the air, as if he was looking for something: "Kara, aren't you curious about the Rudolph I just mentioned, what he looks like now and what kind of life he lives."
Why should I be curious.
Kara wanted to say this, but she knew this was definitely not the answer Lynn wanted.
"Should I be curious? What should I be curious about?"
"Well... to put it simply, this Rudolph is in your information..."
"Us. In our profile."
"Okay, us."
Linn changed his mind: "In our information, although this Rudolph is defined as that kind of person, how do you put it... Oh!
People who have the tendency to change from evil to good are those who can be won over and saved. Right. "
"Probably, right. Then what?"
"Then?"
Lynn smiled: "Then let's go and see if he has changed from evil to good as written in the report."
Turning sharply in the air, Linn flew towards a building below. Kara was stunned for a moment, and then followed her.
………………
Lynn and Kara met, and Ron wasn't too concerned about it.
Although Linn is very unreliable most of the time, Linn is always the most reliable person when encountering difficulties and desperate situations.
A contradiction, but that’s Lynn.
Kara can run and jump. Even if she really encounters any danger, she should leave on her own...
Shaking his head, Ron cleared away those unnecessary thoughts, stopped and stood in front of a three-story building.
"Is this the headquarters of the Justice League that Lynn mentioned? It really looks like Batman."
Coming here as a human being is actually a kind of goodwill and sincerity shown by Ron En.
He intended to express his "position" in coming here to "discuss cooperation matters."
Ron was not in a hurry to enter, nor did Ron have any intention of hiding his arrival or observing the place.
He stood at the door and looked carefully up and down, left and right for a long time.
Although it pretends to be an ordinary house, the thickness of the protruding wall at the porch betrays some details. In addition, Ron also observed some hidden cameras, as well as the positions and gaps of some suspected fire output points. Presumably, at this time, those from the Justice League must be in a room in this small building, watching Look at him on the screen.
Ron smiled and strode towards the door. He reached out and pushed the door gently. Sure enough, the door was unlocked, just like an ordinary door in an ordinary building.
But after entering the door, something was wrong in the house. Regardless of the floor height or the poor viewing angle, this house does not look like it is suitable for human habitation.
Click~
A door to a closed porch not far away opened automatically, and Ron walked over there without even thinking about it.
Inside the door, the "decoration" has completely changed, full of original style, various metal and concrete colors, various simple but practical always-on emergency lights, various exposed pipelines and wide-open views...
There is no decoration, only the original function of the building is used here.
Sturdy.
A house used to withstand wind, frost, snow, rain, jackals, tigers, and leopards, and all enemies has its most basic purpose: to be strong.
Perhaps, from here we can also roughly see some of the style and goals of the owner of this place.
Along the slightly dim passage, Ron came to the end of the corridor and saw the door that Lin En had told him about.
Ron still remembered Lin En's original words: that door was actually specially designed to protect against Superman. Not only was it strong, but it was also filled with lead and mixed with some other green and wonderful props. Even if Superman wanted to destroy that door, it would take some time.
Ron still remembered that the question he asked at the time was: Wouldn't Superman have any objections to this?
Lynn's answer is: No. Superman helped build this door.
When Ron heard this answer, what filled his heart was infinite respect for Superman. And endless admiration for Batman.
Of course, this respect and admiration did not last long, they were all destroyed by Linn's casual words.
"Two big fools, when that day comes, Superman will definitely not hammer this door. He will dig a hole from the roof, from the ground, from other rooms, from the side of the door to go around...it will be a waste of money. , it’s just a waste of money! Even if you have that money, you might as well give it to me. I can only guard against Superman. It’s just a cigarette, really.”
Still the same sentence: Lynn. Understandable.
…
While Ron was waiting, there was a sound of gears turning and sliding rails. It seemed that in addition to maintaining the most advanced technology, this door also retained the most primitive mechanical means.
The thick door opened, Ron stood at the door and saw on the other side of the door, in the spacious room, at the end of the long table, sitting alone: Batman.
At this moment, Ron looked at the Batman who was wearing the Bat suit, lowering his head slightly, hiding his sight in the darkness, and he really had a trance in his heart: It seemed that this was the image that best suited Linn.
"I thought I was going to face the entire Justice League today."
Ron smiled, walked into the door, and naturally reached the lower position, sitting opposite Batman.
"They all have their own things to do. It's a loose group."
No tea, no politeness, the two people got straight to the point when they met.
And it was the "guest" Ron who spoke first: "Actually, when Lin told me that you had formed a team, I was very scared.
I thought you were going to do something... to fight for justice. "
The fight for justice Ron talks about is certainly not the kind of fight for innocent people.
The justice he talks about is the justice that Superman needs, the justice that Batman needs, and the justice that superheroes, a group that has never been recognized by the superiors and always regarded as criminals, need.
Ron couldn't help but feel scared, because in a sense, Ron himself was the one caught in the middle, possessing all the group identities.
And once what he fears happens, it will be obvious that Ron will lose everything he has worked hard for.
And all his achievements and efforts in protecting the people of earth in his own way will be reduced to ashes in an instant.
Fortunately, Ron still heard the good news.
"I'm just thankful that Lynn didn't join the team."
Although he didn't speak, Ron clearly felt that Batman opposite him also had this intention.
"I'll just say it straight."
Ron En straightened his body, crossed his hands and placed them naturally on his abdomen: "I probably know why you want me to join this group, but I still want to confirm it.
What do you want, is for me to join the Justice League, or for the Justice League to join America.
Batman, this is important. "
"I don't want to lie to you. But the existence of the Justice League will definitely not be used by those behind you.
The Justice League only does what the Justice League needs to do, and the rest of the time, everyone in the Justice League is just themselves.
There is no unified position, no unified idea, and no unified goal. As I said, this is a loose alliance. "
"Okay, I probably know it. In other words, the existence of Zhenglian can be known, but it cannot be ordered, right?"
"Yes."
In two simple sentences, Ron and Batman determined each other's purpose, requirements and bottom line.
The prerequisite for Ron to join the Justice League is that everything that needs to be reported needs to be reported to the top. He is both a member of the Justice League and the head of the official department.
Batman's bottom line is that he agrees to Ron's request, but promises not to agree to any order or "request" that Ron relays. If forced by the higher authorities, Zhenglian will return to the state of being an individual and everything will return to the way it was at the beginning.
"Okay, I agree to join the Justice League."
"Welcome to join us."
There was no handshake or smiling faces. The two established a cooperative relationship with each other at a distance that was neither far nor close.
It's that simple and straightforward.
"Well, since I am already in this room, I should be a member of Zhenglian at this time.
I would like to know who are the members of Zhenglian, other situations of Zhenglian, and what position Lin plays in it. "
Ron's question was simple, and Batman was satisfied with it.
Although some information had been obtained when the big monster fell, Ron was still a little surprised to see the real information with his own eyes.
"Green Lantern, I know them. I just vaguely heard some news. It is a very powerful organization, even the most powerful organization I know. They were... destroyed!
Atlantis? This race actually exists, and we have no relevant news at all. "
Ron En's intelligence control is definitely better than that of everyone in Zhenglian combined. After all, he is a foreigner and has been doing this for a long time. Logically speaking, at this time, he should be the one to provide information to the Justice League.
But who told Lin En to have a plug-in~
"Ron."
When Ron was shocked by the information and screamed in disbelief at the destruction of the Green Lantern Corps, Batman also raised his question at the right time.
"...Have you heard of the name Darkseid?"
"!"
Ron's eyes suddenly opened wide. It seemed that he had not just heard about it.
Without answering directly, but thinking for a long time, Ron slowly said: "Don't tell me that you formed the Justice League to deal with enemies of this level.
Don't even tell me that this battle is imminent. "
Ron's expression was more serious than ever.
He didn't know much about Darkseid, but Ron's hometown had a very long history. Before it was destroyed, there were people who traveled the universe with their powerful strength.
Ever since he was a child, Ron had loved listening to the bizarre stories told by his tribesmen about their experiences and stories.
Among them, the name Darkseid is a character that appears many times, but is always unclear and has no detailed description.
Ron once thought that he was just a scary guy made up by his tribe.
It wasn't until he became an adult that Ron learned something about Darkseid through questioning.
That is a powerful and evil tyrant whose only goal is destruction and conquest!
Thinking of this, Ron's eyes suddenly trembled violently.
He thought of something else, a thing, a powerful force, on the earth now.
"No! We must not let Darkseid find the Earth!"
Ron slapped the table and stood up, his expression seemed to be that he had seen some terrible scene happening.
Batman keenly noticed something from Ron's reaction, but he was not sure what it was. Calmly, Batman continued to ask: "I hope you can tell me what you know. of Darkseid.
Also, I would also like to know why you are so afraid of him coming to Earth. "
After moving his mouth twice, Ron regained his composure and shook his head slightly: "Now, it's not time to talk about this yet."
Ding~
On the desktop, a call request sign lit up on the huge touch panel.
It's Gordon calling.
Without any hesitation, Batman directly answered the phone.
"Where are you now?"
"Gordon, what's the matter?"
"I received a report."
"Um."
"You are the culprit."
"No. I didn't do anything."
"But... forget it, take a look at this."
Hang up the phone, and soon, Gordon sends a picture.
It was a scrawled pencil drawing, shaded and printed into a…
Something like a bat.
